How Waalaxy automates LinkedIn prospecting
A Waalaxy campaign takes three steps. The tool is simple to set up; what decides your volume is the plan you pay for and the limits Waalaxy applies to protect your account.
1. Import prospects
You fill a prospect list from a LinkedIn search (up to 1,000 results per import) or from a Sales Navigator search. Each LinkedIn account can hold up to 50,000 prospects.
2. Pick a sequence template
Waalaxy offers more than 99 ready-made sequences (visit, invite, message, follow-up…) and an AI message writer called Waami. You customise the messages, but you cannot add or remove steps in a template: Waalaxy is a template picker, not a free-form sequence builder.
3. Let it run within the quotas
Campaigns run in the cloud, at a pace set by your plan and by LinkedIn's own limits. InMail is not supported. Replies land in your LinkedIn messaging, or in the Waalaxy Inbox if you pay for the add-on ($22/month per account).
Waalaxy LinkedIn limits (help center and pricing page)
- Invitations per month
- About 300 on Pro (11 a day); up to 800 on Advanced and Business
- Invitations per week
- 200, LinkedIn's own ceiling
- Invitations per day
- 100 at most
- Messages per day
- 120 to 150
- Profile visits per day
- 120 to 150
- Daily volume
- Drawn each day between 80% and 100% of the limit
- InMail
- Not supported
Waalaxy Chrome extension, app and login: what changed in 2026
Many guides still describe Waalaxy as a Chrome extension. That is out of date: the whole tool now lives in the cloud, and Waalaxy has pulled its Chrome extension from the Chrome Web Store (its announcement is dated July 1, 2026). Your campaigns keep going while your computer is switched off.
Waalaxy login: there is nothing to install. You log in to the web app at app.waalaxy.com, where your campaigns, prospect lists and settings live.
An optional extension, Alien Copilot, still exists, but it only speeds up imports from LinkedIn. You do not need it to run a campaign. Older articles that tell you to install the Waalaxy extension describe the previous version of the tool.
Waalaxy integrations: HubSpot, Pipedrive, Zapier, API and MCP
- HubSpot and Pipedrive: native CRM sync, from the Pro plan.
- Zapier, Make and n8n: the route to every other tool (Salesforce, Zoho, Sellsy, Axonaut, noCRM.io, Google Sheets, Airtable, Brevo).
- Waalaxy API: a public API, documented at docs.waalaxy.com, to list your lists and campaigns and import prospects. Up to 10 API keys per user.
- MCP server: to drive Waalaxy from an AI assistant.
- API and MCP are reserved for the Advanced and Business plans.
What is Waalaxy? From ProspectIn to a cloud LinkedIn tool
Waalaxy is a LinkedIn prospecting tool: it sends connection requests, messages and profile visits on your behalf, following a sequence you pick from a library. Its promise is to make LinkedIn your first acquisition channel without a database or complex settings, and it openly targets beginners.
The product started life as ProspectIn, built by WAAPI SAS in Montpellier. It took the Waalaxy name in 2021. Today it also offers a second channel (cold email, on its top plan), an email finder paid in credits, an Inbox add-on for LinkedIn messages, CRM sync, a public API and an MCP server.
Its most recent change is technical: Waalaxy has turned into a cloud-only tool that no longer requires a Chrome extension, and the extension itself has left the Chrome Web Store (announcement dated July 1, 2026).
Is Waalaxy safe for your LinkedIn account?
Waalaxy takes precautions, by its own description: it waits 2 to 3 minutes between two actions, sets each day's volume somewhere between 80% and 100% of your limit, and puts campaigns on hold for 48 hours if it spots unusual activity.
It does not hide the risk either: its help center says plainly that the tool is not compliant with LinkedIn's terms of service, and that Waalaxy has no way to help you recover a banned account. LinkedIn's rules prohibit automation in general, so no LinkedIn automation tool is risk-free, Emelia included: the sensible approach is to start slowly, on a profile that already has a network.
Is there a safer alternative to Waalaxy? Tools differ in how they limit the risk, not in whether it exists: Expandi and Dripify assign a dedicated IP address to each account, HeyReach a dedicated proxy on its Growth plan. See Waalaxy alternatives.
Waalaxy email finder and cold email (Business only)
Email finder
Every plan includes an email finder paid in credits: 1 credit per professional email found, nothing charged when no email is found. You get 25 credits a month on Pro and Advanced, 500 on Business. They reset every month and do not roll over. More credits are sold as a subscription, from $66/month for 500 credits (about $0.13 per email found).
Cold email and LinkedIn email sequences
Email steps after your LinkedIn steps exist only on the Business plan, at $69 per LinkedIn account per month. Mailboxes are unlimited, with up to 5 emails per sequence and weekly sending limits that Waalaxy sets by provider (500 for Gmail, 100 for Outlook, 10,000 for Office 365).
We found no warm-up or deliverability tool in Waalaxy's documentation. Email is designed as a follow-up to your LinkedIn steps.

LinkedIn only or LinkedIn + email? Waalaxy vs Emelia
The answer depends on one question. On LinkedIn alone, Waalaxy is often the cheaper of the two. As soon as you add email, every LinkedIn account has to move to Business, while every Emelia plan already includes both channels.

Not any more. A lifetime deal was sold on AppSumo in 2022; it is sold out. The only discounts Waalaxy documents today are yearly billing, team discounts on request and ambassador codes.
Waalaxy runs an ambassador program that pays a commission of 20% to 50%. On one of its two formulas, the person referred gets 20% off and a 2-week trial: ambassador codes are the only discount codes Waalaxy documents.
Not for automation. A "Freemium" account is still offered at no cost, but Waalaxy's help center says it cannot automate anything or launch a campaign; its blog, on the other hand, still talks about a few actions per day. The free plan with 80 invitations a month left the pricing page in April 2026. Paid plans start at $19/month per LinkedIn account, after a 14-day trial.
